This is an inspiring piece. I saw the motivational poster and I had to track down the source. I found another blogger referencing this art (see here - www.greygeckopress.com/2011/te…). I'm so glad I found this. Thank you for drawing!

I'm OCD about having my blinds tilted the right way when I go to bed, so that creeps can't just look through and watch me sleep. And for some reason, the only night my blinds are facing towards me is the night I hear tapping on my window. COINCIDENCE? I THINK KNOT (yes knot)

Had this favorited on an old account, now have it in my new account. Just gonna add to the masses and tell you this is an absolutely exquisite piece. I dare say we all felt this way about our stuffed animals when we were young. Beautifully done my husband loves it too

Is it wrong to imagine the teddy bear sounding like a fusion of Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf facing down the Balrog - "You shall not PASS!!!" - and Toby Jones as Dobby the House-Elf in the Harry Potter films? I ask because this image stokes so many ideas in my brain!

My name’s Mathilde and I’m writing as an intern from a writer’s society in Aalborg, Denmark. I’ve been put in charge of finding images to go with our writing prompts programme, which helps aspiring writers with a piece of text and an inspirational image to get the creative juices flowing.

I’m writing you because I’d like to use this picture (an maybe more) for our writing prompts, so if you would like the extra exposure and agree to us using it, we will in return agree to not use it for any other purposes than the writing prompts.

I love this picture. Since I was a little girl, I always considered plushies as guardians of our dreams, kinda like in the "New Nightmare" movie, where, according to Dylan, his stuffed T-Rex protected him from Freddy Krueger. Wonderful job!
